Menu bar response time

How can I make the menu bar wait an extra second to appear after moving the pointer to the top of the screen? Read carefully - I do NOT want the menu bar to show all the time in full screen.

I do not believe that is possible. At your option, suggest Apple provide it as a feature: Feedback - macOS - Apple

How to reduce the menu bar showing delay? I have my menu bar set to auto hide, that works fine. When I want to see it I push my cursor to the top of the screen but there is a pause before it shows. I understand that this is to prevent accidentally showing the bar but the pause is too long and quickly becomes irritating. It make the OS feel really slow. Can I change the delay time?
